Ingredients

  • 1 (4 serving size) package sugar free vanilla instant pudding
  • 1.5 cups low fat milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups light whipped topping (such as Truwhip or Cool Whip)
  • 9 full sheet graham crackers, broken in half
  • Chocolate Fudge Glaze

Instructions

  •  In a medium bowl whisk together the pudding mix and milk until it is smooth and lump free. Gently fold in the vanilla and whipped topping.
  • Break the graham cracker sheets in half. Arrange 9 of the 18 halves in the bottom of an 8-inch square pan. (Note: there will be a little space between each cracker and the sides of the pan which is fine. )
  • Top the crackers with the pudding mixture, spreading evenly to cover. Arrange the remaining 9 graham crackers on top of the pudding.
  • Prepare the chocolate fudge glaze (https://simple-nourished-living.com/skinny-chocolate-fudge-glaze/) and while it is still warm, spread it evenly over the graham crackers.
  • Refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight before serving.
  • Cut into 9 even pieces: 3 times each way.
